Description
Mike Hill joins for me for a multi-episode exploration of the masterful book “Lila: An Inquiry Into Morals” written by best-selling author Robert Pirsig. This book may be one of the most undervalued ever written, as it proposes an alternative interpretation of reality that Pirsig calls “The Metaphysics of Quality” (MOQ). According to MOQ, reality is not made up of substance, but rather it is composed of distinct patterns of value. In a Copernican-like revolution of perspective, MOQ sheds new light on age-old debates such as moral relativism, the nature of subject-object duality, good vs. evil, science vs. religion, the importance of freedom, and the primacy of action.Be sure to check out NYDIG, one of the most important companies in Bitcoin: https://nydig.com/GUESTMike’s Website: https://www.mikehill.design/PODCASTPodcast Website: https://whatismoneypodcast.com/Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-what-is-money-show/id1541404400Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/25LPvm8EewBGyfQQ1abIsE?si=wgVuY16XR0io4NLNo0A11A&nd=1RSS Feed: https://feeds.simplecast.com/MLdpYXYITranscript:OUTLINE00:00:00 “What is Money?” Intro00:00:08 A Purpose of Evil is to Test the Integrity of the Good00:06:09 Christ on the Cross as Emblematic of the Dynamic Tension of Being Human00:07:37 Society Frees Individuals from the Biological Chains of Necessity00:10:28 The Dynamic Tension Between The Individual and Society00:14:35 Authoritarian Government as a Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing00:16:54 Evaluating the Sovereign Individual through the Lens of MoQ00:19:55 “Every Consciousness is a Center of the Universe”00:22:16 A High Quality Socioeconomic System Assimilates a Maximal Quantity of Perspectives00:25:25 A Human Being is a Collection of Ideas…00:27:07 NYDIG00:28:15 The Dynamic Tension Between the Biological and Social Layers00:32:30 The Role of Totalitarianism in the Bootstrapping of Societies00:36:22 Conditions of Oppression as a Precursor to Liberation00:39:09 Nietzsche’s Three Metamorphoses: The Camel, The Lion, and The Child00:43:17 “The Moral Equivalent of War” and Life as Disobedience to Gravity00:46:35 The Dynamic Tension Between Central Banking and Bitcoin00:51:57 What Happens after The Lion Becomes The Child?00:53:31 “What is Money?” OutroSOCIALBreedlove Twitter: https://twitter.com/Breedlove22WiM?
